Power and travel, recognised as the significant environmental impacts in content production, are set to be at the forefront of discussion in the upcoming Flint Forum on 29 February at 4pm.
The focus will be on the urgent need for decarbonization in content production, emphasising the importance of reducing travel and energy emissions to zero.
The current scenario presents an encouraging outlook, with a myriad of cutting-edge technologies and initiatives emerging to aid in the transition away from diesel, allowing content creators to produce exceptional material while minimizing their carbon footprint.
In the upcoming online discussion panel titled “How to Dump Diesel: Preparing for Zero Emissions Production,” a diverse group of participants, including content makers, media tech vendors, and energy experts, will share practical strategies for productions of all sizes to rapidly reduce emissions and achieve zero emissions before it’s too late.
